Kevin...I would not want to see myself in your scenario either.....however my seamstress works from the privacy of her home. That does makes it a bit easier. I'm short and stocky so I find anything off the rack to rarely fit well. The extra shipping cost doesn’t compare to the convenience of shopping from home. Works for me anyway.

This is a great idea.

I'm going to invite my seamstress to the house! I'll have to coordinate my next slacks purchase with one of my wife's out-of-town jaunts, but it could work.

Thanks!

Add in some nice wine and music and you may get the pants done for free. I see nothing but trouble in your future if you heed this advice.

FREE?

The way my mind was wandering, I thought they might wind up costing me several hundred.

I wear plate pants when working the plate.

I wear base pants when working the bases.

And, I will wear combo pants when I work the combo.

The combo is a DH.

I always wear plates behind the plate and combos on the bases. Base slacks are too tight around the leg.

I would/could never wear combos behind the plate. Big legs+triple-knee leg guards.
